When I was young, 'Scarface' was my favorite film. Al Pacino is my hero. I want to work with him.
I seek speed, clarity, and a practical approach in people I mingle and work with. I can't see myself working in films that stretch beyond maximum four months.
For films, the process is that you work consistently and constantly for 3-4 months and then leave; whereas for a play, you prepare for about a month and then continue performing it for 5 to 6 months.
I mean, the only thing that matters to me is getting to the work - getting to do the work. And I don't really care where it is: whether it's on stage or on television or in film.
I come from the theater, and I've done a lot of character work in the theater, but Hollywood stuff in film and TV, they've been more leading lady/ingenue type roles.
The system in Germany is different, as you sign up with a company for two or three years, and you work exclusively with them; you can't do any film work on the side.
I work very fast and steadily, and I don't hardly ever notice that I'm working. It feels like just breathing or walking when I do films.
I think that the audience wants to see women being put into real situations where they can relate to them, rather than seeing some glamorous woman in a 'Bond' film.
I applaud Women in Film - not only for celebrating the successes of women, but for providing a safety network to mentor women and to discuss the particular issues that arise in a very male-dominated industry.
What I think is wonderful is that women are not just avengers or victims in films. They are people. They are characters. It's so refreshing. They're playing different kinds of characters, and they aren't being typecast.
War is chaotic and when you start having a larger scale film and you have a lot of safety protocols and choreography, I would imagine it becomes more difficult.
I don't want to make music alone in a dark studio and make me feel awful and depressed. I want to make music and feel happy and get to share it with people.
Art makes us human, music makes us human, and I deeply feel that science makes us human.
It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.
What else makes you hot?" You asking what makes me hot makes me hot.
Well-behaved women seldom make history.
Best advice that I ever got is to do whatever it takes to make myself happy, so that I'll be able to make others happy. If I'm not happy, I can't make other people happy.
I definitely want to be involved but only while I think I can make a contribution and I make a difference.
Doug Motel makes 'conscious comedy'. He makes me laugh, and he makes me think.
People often say that having a family makes you make safer choices. It's been the total opposite for me. It's really made me want to make bolder choices.
If you believe you can make a difference, then you will make a difference. Believe in yourself, your family and your community and you will win.
